Ignacio Churubusco

Ignacio Churubusco (1874-1942) was a Mexican merchant. Born in Nuevo Paraiso, he became a stallholder in the marketplace of the provincial capital of Escalera, running the "Carniceria" (Butcher's Shop). He sold food to the soldiers of the Mexican Army during the Mexican Revolution and later to the Rebeldes, and eventually left Mexico for California as tensions escalated in 1916.
